After their graduation, Crimson Vow begins to undertake Hunter quests in order to cover their living expenses. After a few gathering quests, they accept an assignment as guards for a caravan, where they befriend an old merchant. After an embarrassing incident with their garments, the Crimson Vow prove their worth by handily defeating an attacking robber band, their wizard ally, and his upgraded rock golem. During the fight, however, Reina reveals an overly intense hatred for bandits.
